It is painful to sit through. The narrator mispronounces so many of the names of locations and even common people groups; Yorkshire, Pennines, Celtic - to name but a few. Some of the places he talks about I haven't heard of but I am willing to bet that there are a lot more that I didn't catch. The visuals are repeated over and over with no relation whatsoever to the narration. The narrator speaks in almost a monotone and his language is very stilted, even when he manages correct pronunciation. That is what happens when you don't use a script supervisor. Without question it is a very lazy and shameful attempt at a documentary and should be avoided at all costs.
